I would agree with some of the criticisms of the script mentioned by other reviewers, but I would not agree with the priority placed on those flawed moments. The overall message of the film was so filled with hope that it even got me (the eternal pessimist) to considering my part in this great scheme. Any film can be torn apart at the weak edges, but few films can claim the importance of a film such as this one. In a world where television and film have become the education tools of choice, a story that promotes this type of mindset is not only inspiring but essential to our progress as a society. Things can change and we need be reminded of that constantly. For some reason it is far too easy to forget.
